Just use the board normally as yet another speed bump recedes in the rear view mirror.
If I had to make a semi informed assessment, it appears that one of our hosting providers internal firewall IP addresses has been blacklisted. This wouldn't be hard to accomplish with a modestly organized effort by some bad characters.
In any case, I'll ask around and see what kind of vulnerability the change I made would create. My guess is minimal, if anything. (Ironically, the firewall takes care of most of this sort of thing).
I'm still a bit chagrined that it got so much worse when I was essentially out of touch. It was good to get away though, fwiw.

Re: Strange message about IP being blocked
It just might be that the mechanism that submits an IP to spamhaus is, itself, faulty. For example, if the IP being submitted is improperly formatted, spamhaus would return an error message instead of whatever it normally does.

Re: Strange message about IP being blocked
IP addresses (for hosts) are pretty straight forward - four values, none '0' or higher than 254. It's variable subnet masking that was a bitch back in the day, but I'm sure they have calculators/tools for that now.
This is just a case of an IP address that's part of the QSF hosting environment making it on a list. Stop checking the list and problem solved. How the address got there will most likely never be known.
That's pretty much it.

Thank you again, Dave, for all you do for this site/community. Honestly, we're lucky to have as diligent an admin as yourself running this show. I can only imagine how much a pain it can be sometimes.

It doesn't feel like a pain. You're welcome though. You, and everyone else.
As far as time goes, most of what I do is behind the scenes moderating. The movement of misplaced topics is the most visible thing. And sometimes 'Moderator' has to speak up. But mostly it's cleaning up after spammers and so on. As it happens, I just updated the Captcha questions, so hopefully that will be quiet for a while.
Moderating is house cleaning. It's not power. It's responsibility. I've been doing it for over 20 years now - going back to the Late Night forum at Deep Sinking. I really don't know why it's considered such a big deal elsewhere.
